DeSantis Campaign Continues to Leak, Trump No-Show in Iowa

Republican voters were showered with tons of fodder from the candidates in the 2024 presidential primary election during two political gatherings, one in Iowa, and the other in West Palm Beach.

Former President Donald Trump and Vivek Ramaswamy were both in attendance at the Turning Point USA Action summit in Florida, while Gov. Ron DeSantis, Sen. Tim Scott, VP Mike Pence, Nikki Haley, and Ramaswamy also took in the Family Leader Summit in the Buckeye State...

President Trump skipped the faith-based summit and Gov. DeSantis confirmed he would not be attending the TPUSA event.

DeSantis supporters and "influencers" crucified Trump for skipping out of the Family Leader Summit, while Trump supporters dismissed DeSantis's refusal to go to TPUSA because he was scared.

TPUSA has always been considered a Trump-friendly event, so DeSantis probably skipped it to avoid getting booed. Maybe.

Meanwhile, just as both events were ending, news broke that DeSantis had to fire around a dozen members of his staff due to budgetary issues, even though Team DeSantis was out promoting the fact that he outraised everyone in the field of GOP presidential candidates.

The news story was written as a result of one of those non-existent "leaks" DeSantis and his team say do not exist.

The leaker appears to be someone within the presidential campaign, possibly the same person that leaked to The Floridian that Christina Pushaw was "reprimanded" by DeSantis and was taking more of a backseat driver role for the campaign.

There are always leaks in politics, even in DeSantis's world. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

Byron Donalds-Did you hear about the racist ultra-MAGA member of Congress that called Israel a “racist state”?

Oh, wait, that was, in fact, @RepJayapal, the anti-Israel and antisemitic Democrat Chair of the Progressive Caucus.

It’s time to wake up and realize who these people are.

Debbie Wasserman Schultz-RFK Jr.’s vile antisemitic tropes and Sinophobia are dangerous and insult countless families who lost loved ones to the virus. Just for the record: Chinese & Jewish people are NOT a race, and me and my Ashkenazi Jewish family got COVID.

Mario Diaz-Balart-The appalling death of artist Ales Pushkin in state custody is another reminder of the brutality of dictatorships such as Belarus. We must have a consistent policy that maintains tight sanctions on Belarus and its repressive, anti-American allies.

Rep. Anna V. Eskamani -Please do not forget about the women of Iran. They need our continued advocacy today and everyday.

Paul Renner-The Florida Legislature took great strides to bolster our insurance market to create an environment where companies can provide stable and reliable coverage for Floridians.

We understand the unfortunate decision to withdraw from the state was not based on the impacts of bipartisan reforms in recent years taken by the Legislature or the future of the state’s insurance market, but the company’s financials.

While our reforms will take time to take effect, we put the right systems in place to strengthen our insurance market and provide Floridians with the access to coverage and peace of mind they need for their property.
